In 1997, the South Main Alliance (SMA) joined with area museums to form the Houston Museum District Association as a vehicle to enhance and promote the museum district as a destination for Houstonians and visitors to Houston.  For more information about the district and the member museums go to www.houstonmuseumdistrict.org.
